As a Child

Scripture: Luke 18: [17] I tell you the truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”

Observation: Children are so trusting when they are little, without worry or care, they do things out of joy. Not concerned about tomorrow, but enjoying the moment. I get so wrapped up in my troubles I can’t see God at times, so concerned about the things in this world I can’t see my heavenly home.

Application: I need to trust as a child in God’s loving grace, that He cares for me. Focus on His love and to be filled with joy no matter what might be happening around me. He is my Father and I should trust completely in Him.

Prayer: Dear Father hold me in your arms and guide me through this life until I come home to you.
